XPages Mobile Controls from OpenNTF and Dojo 1.6 to build iPad Apps

The Dojo Foundation is working on some
significant
extensions for mobile apps. For
example as the roadmap shows some of the nice UI controls from the Wink
Toolkit will be merged into the
Dojo Toolkit.

Some first parts are in Dojo 1.6.0 which
seems to be released now. You can download
the src version of Dojo 1.6.0
which contains several unit tests (in dojo/dojox/mobile).

I spent some time yesterday to play
around with the new splitter control and it's easy to use in combination
with the view and document controls from the OpenNTF
project.

I've created a simple app with a navigator
in the left column and view in the right column (as in most Notes applications).
From the view you can open the documents in the same place using transitions.
